The Order was founded by [[Ecclesiarch]] [[Alexis XXII]] when he split the Sisters of the [[Convent Prioris]]{{Fn|2b}} on [[Terra]], where the Order remains based{{Fn|1}}. Their first leader and most honoured [[List of Imperial Saints|Saint]] is [[Alicia Dominica]].{{Fn|4}} Their colours are black armour, white cloaks with red linings. Their weapons are a deep red. These were the original colours of the Convent Prioris{{Fn|2a}} and even further to the original uniforms of the Daughters of the Emperor{{Fn|5}} which the Order inherited when the Convent was split, and has been unchanged for four thousand years.{{Fn|2a}}

*[[Palatine (Adepta Sororitas)|Palatine]] [[Rhiannnon]] was sent with a mission of fifty Sisters to [[Iocanthos]], though the reason for this deployment is not known and considered mysterious given the lack of interest the Convent Prioris typically takes in the sector{{Fn|3}}.
